This article reported that a few government leaders and pro-establishment bodies are now in favor of setting a minimum wage for certain occupations. It takes a long, long time for these people to realize the harm that is being caused to our society by the lack of such a basic measure to protect the citizens.
The article failed to mention the Public Forum that was held yesterday (9 June 2012) by a non-government organization. Article. This forum featured passionate speakers who have spoken on this issue on many occasions in the past. It is quite sad to see the media ignore people who have not been in the forefront of this issue, and give prominence to other people who were not really passionate about this matter but happened to be pro-establishment!
We need a more independent and unbiased media to improve the engagement of the citizens in Singapore.
